About Me

A detail-oriented analyst who thrives on making sense of complex data and building systems that work in the real world.

Dylan Tague

Data-Driven Problem Solver

I'm Dylan Tague, a data analyst based in Philadelphia with a passion for transforming raw information into clear, actionable insights. My background spans urgent veterinary care, rescue operations, and tech support—environments where accurate data isn't just helpful, it's essential.

Currently pursuing an Associate of Arts in Mathematics at Montgomery County Community College, I combine academic rigor with hands-on experience in Python (Pandas, NumPy), React, Excel, Google Sheets, and various data visualization tools. I believe the best analysis doesn't just present numbers—it tells a story that drives decisions.
